Oprah Winfrey's Estate
As we drive along the one mile stretch of Sheffield Road keep in mind that everything
to the right is Oprah Winfrey's $51 million estate. The place is huge! It's
as big as Disneyland! Here is the main entrance. In the back you can just make out a
small bit of the main house. [July 2005: Upon review I no longer think
the house in the background is Oprah's house. This may not even be the entrance. I'm
told her house is slightly northwest of here.]
Here's a bird's eye view of Oprah's house. This aerial view is from our local newspaper,
so I assume they got the right house.
[August 2005: I've determined that this here is the actual
driveway to Oprah's house. See that driveway going off to the right? That's it.
Not very spectacular at all.]
From here we'll turn right onto East Valley Road and go just a little ways so we
can see John Cleese's ranch and Mansion.
